    Literal delusions are not evidence of wrongdoing.

    They have the right to be afraid, just like when going to a scary movie. Clive Barker isn't guilty of assault because you found Hellraiser scary.

    It does not impute any wrongdoing on the part of the person they were afraid of; unless you want to be accused of rape by every woman who crossed the street to avoid a man.
